And Goff then regressed and McVay took stafford on and forged the offense to him. Campbell is now taking Goff back to form . Shanahan has literally made every QB he’s touched look better. A right coach will be able to make Trevor realize his full potential (and before anyone plays gotcha, I’ve stated a million times Trevor isn’t elite and I don’t think he will be. I think he can be in the top half of this league with some borderline elite years with the right support around him. Aka basically what every team has to unless you have Kermit at QB)

"I’ve stated a million times Trevor isn’t elite and I don’t think he will be." ...yet he's paid as if he's top 3.  Again if he puts up top ten numbers this year, it will be different... I'll leave that likelihood up to you.   But if at the end of the season Trevor puts up mediocre stats, you'll have a guy going into his 5th year never having shown that he is a reliable and consistent top 10 QB.  As it pertains to my example HC, Ben Johnson, he chose to stay as an OC with Goff, turning down the Commanders job HC job.  I just don't see how Trevor Lawrence (plus contract) will convince him otherwise.
